Canada School Boards Sue Social Media Companies
Posted on 2024-03-29 15:24:13
In world news...

Four of the largest school boards in the Canadian province of Ontario have
launched lawsuits against TikTok, Meta and SnapChat alleging the social media
platforms are disrupting student learning.

The lawsuits announced Thursday claim that platforms like Facebook and
Instagram are “designed for compulsive use, have rewired the way children
think, behave, and learn.”

The school boards are seeking damages for disruption to student learning and
the education system.

Dozens of U.S. states, including California and New York, are also suing Meta
Platforms Inc. for harming young people and contributing to a youth mental
health crisis by knowingly and deliberately designing features on Instagram
and Facebook that addict children to its platforms.
